It was - if the hand had been by his side, or he'd had his back turned then yes. His hand was out in front of him as Ayew was shooting at a goal that was yards away and had moved up there as the shot was taken; its a penalty all day long no matter who it is awarded against.

I'm sorry but its a ridiculous decision. He was about 3 feet away

Meanwhile Sancho has just done great work to set up Haaland and hopefully United don't try going back in on the back of this.

I still see Haaland going right to the top. He's the perfect goal scorer.

Raiola has pretty much boxed a move off at the end of the season. Haaland has a release clause for about 60m that kick in in 2021, he keeps scoring then he will be off.

neither of those decisions was incompetent though - he was off his line, and it was a handball

compare that to the two scandals we had last season, where a perfectly good goal vs them was disallowed and a penalty was given for nothing vs Brighton

This. Journo in the Guardian saying that the decisions were both correct under current laws. Goes on to say that the law is a mess.
I would say that laws are at their messiest when they're not applied consistantly.
